Robert Balson Dingle (26 March 1926 - 2 March 2010) was a British theoretical physicist, known for his work on mathematical physics, condensed matter physics, asymptotic expansions, anomalous skin effect, liquid helium II, mathematical functions and integrals.
He spent the year 1947-1948 at the University of Bristol where he worked under the supervision of Professors Nevill Francis Mott and Herbert Fröhlich, and then continued research in theoretical physics at the University of Cambridge under the supervision of Professor Douglas Hartree, earning the Ph.D. there in 1952.
Following research positions in Delft (Netherlands) and in Ottawa (Canada) he was appointed Reader in theoretical physics at the University of Western Australia in Perth.
[5] In mathematical physics he made major contributions in the fields of Bose-Einstein integrals,[6] and with D. Arndt and S.K.
[11] His extensive researches in this latter field he compiled in his monograph on asymptotic expansions[12] (rigorous proof of Bose-Einstein condensation there on pp. 267–271).
